3. Silly string

Buy the silly string in the color that represents the gender of your baby. Put paper around the cans and tie with blue and pink ribbon. Once guests grab the can and start spraying each other, they will know if you are having a boy or a girl!

7. Photobooth-style reveal

You each have a balloon, both act like you are going to blow up your balloon and then in the last photo do the actual balloon for the gender of the baby. Could do in a local photo booth or create the collage yourself with these three pictures.

8. Using a sign

Create (or buy) a sign that says ‘boy or girl’ and then in your next photo have the sign only revealing what the gender is. Creating a collage would be a fun idea for this idea, too!
